Lyrics: The Young Rascals. People Got To Be Free.

All the world over, so easy to see

People everywhere just wanna be free

Listen, please listen, that's the way it should be

There's peace in the valley, people got to be free



You should see, what a lovely, lovely world this'd be

Everyone learned to live together,

seems to me such an easy, easy thing should be

Why can't you and me learn to love one another



All the world over, so easy to see

People everywhere just wanna be free

I can't understand it, so simple to me

People everywhere just got to be free



If there's a man who is down and needs a helping hand

All it takes is you to understand and to pull him through,

Seems to me, we got to solve it individually

And I'll do unto you what you do to me



There'll be shoutin' from the mountains on out to sea

(out to the sea)

No two ways about it, people have to be free

(they got to be free)

Ask me my opinion, my opinion will be

(ah-ha)

It's a natural situation for a man to be free



git right on board now



Oh, what a feelin's just come over me

Enough to move a mountain, make a blind man see

Everybody sing it now, come on, let's go see

Peace in the valley, now we ought to be free



See that train over there?

Thats the train of freedom

It's about to 'rrive any minute, now

You know it's been'a long, long overdue

Look out 'cause its a'comin' right on through
